They just interviewed a black man on television who claims they came and got him to register over 30 times and told him he could vote numerous times and it was legal! He claimed he did not know it was illegal and the democratic register also offered him social program assistance if he promised to go vote and these numerous locations and that if he was unable to make it to some, to let her know as she could have someone show up and vote for him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is just sickening! Call your local officials and demand they do something about this BS. These people need to be arrested, charged and thrown in prison!

Estimates are now in the 100,000's of thousands of fake democratic registered voters in swing states.

Actually, its the other way around.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/09/us...us&oref=slogin

"The six swing states seem to be in violation of federal law in two ways. Michigan and Colorado are removing voters from the rolls within 90 days of a federal election, which is not allowed except when voters die, notify the authorities that they have moved out of state, or have been declared unfit to vote.

Indiana, Nevada, North Carolina and Ohio seem to be improperly using Social Security data to verify registration applications for new voters. In addition to the six swing states, three more states appear to be violating federal law. Alabama and Georgia seem to be improperly using Social Security information to screen registration applications from new voters. And Louisiana appears to have removed thousands of voters after the federal deadline for taking such action. Under federal law, election officials are supposed to use the Social Security database to check a registration application only as a last resort, if no record of the applicant is found on state databases, like those for driver’s licenses or identification cards. The requirement exists because using the federal database is less reliable than the state lists, and is more likely to incorrectly flag applications as invalid. Many state officials seem to be using the Social Security lists first.

In three states — Colorado, Louisiana and Michigan — the number of people purged from the election rolls since Aug. 1 far exceeds the number who may have died or relocated during that period. "

More tactics to stop legitimate registered voters from voting on election day.

As for the doubters, turn off Oprah and try watching the news. These stories are there as others here have confirmed. Lots of people going to prison over this.
As politely as possible, the doubters you just dissed don't all watch Oprah, and quite a lot of us read the news, and watch newscasts. No one doubts that voter fraud does occur. However, Republicans commit voter fraud as well. We all want this election to be conducted fairly and honestly, whether we are Democrats, Republicans or Independents.

Yes, very interesting isn't it? As I was reading the article something occurred to me. The reason that organizations like ACORN have so many duplicate registrants is because of the purging that goes on. If a state has been known to purge records because someone hasn't voted in 2 consecutive elections then I could understand re-registering people who have already registered. It's possible that some states are not informing people timely that they have been purged and when they find out (Nov. 4) it's too late. Especially in states that are purging after the deadline.

Now it all makes sense. ACORN is covering all of its bases.

Is there not a better lie you can come up with? You need to pick up a copy of "How to increase your Brainpower".

In some places people are being allowed to register and vote at the same time.

This whole ACORN thing is actually a talking point being pushed by the Republicans in a state of desperation. They want all their minions to spread the lies.
